Due to the last decade's steady increase in efficiency of creatures we can expect this deck to only get better with time. The deck is different in that it doesn't put one single strategy foremost and then does everything to streamline the deck into executing that strategy, it is a deck that tries to execute a multi-faceted strategy by having an efficient and redundant tutor core (maybe it needs to be streamlined, you're welcome to dig in). It is unlike anything most of you have seen or played before, so free your mind of your mental inhibitions and browse on. It is perhaps the most beautiful deck of legacy (not afraid of using big words here), surprising you with its consistency (which is reasonable), efficiency (which is good) and flexibility (which is unparalleled). Also, with a large amount of creatures in the deck, Aether Vial is normally a given, but I wouldn't restrict the deck archetype to decks that include vial, it's just a common choice. Instead, the core of the deck can be seen to be creature tutors that allow you to play some silver bullet creatures to potentially shore up a specific matchup or to help with specific game states. With the power creep of efficient removal and card advantage built into creatures, the tap effects that have long been central to the deck have become too unreliable. Just changing a single slot can have a large impact on a matchup. It's all up to you and how you choose to use your flex slots. You can also tutor up strong card advantage engines when that is the approach you need to take, or a sweeper. And vs midrange decks getting Leovold, Merieke Ri Berit or Stoneforge for Jitte can all be game winners. Vs aggressive decks a Peacekeeper can give you all the time in the world to build up a game winning board. Vs control a Glen Elendra can cause some problems, or a Magus of the Moon. Vs combo you can slam a Spell Queller, Leovold, Gaddock Teeg or Gilded Drake at an inconvenient moment for your opponent. Having Fauna Shaman active and an Aether Vial in play means you can put basically any card from your deck into play at instant speed and uncounterably (well, you need to plan for it and tick Vial up accordingly). The advantage of this is that you develop your board more quickly than most decks, and your late game topdecks improve since a top decked mana producer can be used as tutor fodder for Fauna Shaman. In parallel it can deploy a Mother of Runes to secure key creatures and gain board control. The deck typically tries to (or rather tried to) ramp by playing a large amount of alternative mana sources and fewer lands. An introduction to what the different colours bring, and what different colour combinations look like, could be added to this primer. The deck is typically focused on the bant colours with a light black splash but any combination is possible and they all have their advantages. Depending on which colours and card selection suit you choose to use, the deck will look a bit differently. He found an ally in the planeswalker Daretti, who was targeting former colleagues of the Academy for revenge.At its core it's a creature centric control deck, using creatures to try to control the board and to some degree stack and having some amount of selection to help find the creatures needed. Put out on the street, he became the leader of a thieving gang of goblins and often incites mobs to violence. When Marchesa became queen, she fired Grenzo as dungeon keeper. His plan to rid Paliano from Muzzio's artifact creatures backfired when Selvala released the constructs in his tunnels. Grenzo's agents swarm the sewers and crawl through the night - mercenary killers and spies, dispatching problems and watching for opportunities to blackmail.Īfter the elf Selvala killed king Brago, Grenzo released her from the dungeons in a bid to kill the artificer Muzzio. He has a key to every lock, a blade for every job, and not a shred of scruples to go with either. He had created a network of power through his knowledge of the elaborate labyrinth of sewers and drains that riddle the city of Paliano. Grenzo used to be the dungeon warden of Paliano. Grenzo has a huge frame for a goblin, but always walks hunched over and clutching a staff. Grenzo is a scheming goblin in the High City of Paliano on the plane of Fiora.
